#Sakura2024 🌸Sakura practice blooming @Fukui When cherry blossoms bloom, it is a season that many people look forward to. Pang is no exception. 🗓️The forecast says that this year, cherry blossoms will bloom 10 days later than last year. People who have never seen cherry blossoms like Pang have been waiting (although I have secretly looked at them in Kyoto, but there were only 2 trees). 🌸The most popular cherry blossom viewing spot in Fukui is along the Asuwa River. When the time comes, there will be yatai selling food. Many locals wait for the full bloom before going, but Pang is excited. When the weather is good, she does not hesitate to go and see what it is like. In conclusion, I will go all weekend. I plan to go again this week. The savings I have made for the whole month are 0️⃣. The next morning, there was news about the tax increase again. I comforted myself that it is rare. Although it has not bloomed all over, I think it will be full bloom this week. If anyone is passing by this city, please come and visit. We might even pass each other. 📌Asuwakawa, Fukui 🗓️Spring April 🕰️24 hrs #TravelJapan #pangsjourney #fukui #japan #sakura #hokuriku #Asuwakawa #fukui #fukui #sakura #hokuriku #japan

Do you know Mikuni Port in Fukui Prefecture? It is one of the termini of the Echizen Railway and thrives as a fishing town. The scenery is typical of a fishing town. It is famous for its delicious seafood from the Sea of ​​Japan, including crabs and sweet shrimp. Sweet shrimp in particular is often caught in spring and autumn. It would be nice to stroll around the port town in the warmth of spring and enjoy the gourmet food. #SpringTrip #FukuiPrefecture #MikuniPort

When it comes to Fukui Prefecture, in addition to tasting delicacies such as Echizen crab, the Dinosaur Museum is definitely one of the must-see attractions. Fukui Prefecture is known as the Kingdom of Dinosaurs. Dinosaur fossils unearthed here account for about 80% of the total in Japan. It is a special place for dinosaur research. The Fukui Prefectural Dinosaur Museum is known as one of the three largest dinosaur museums in the world. It houses a large number of precious dinosaur fossil exhibits, as well as moving bionic dinosaurs! It takes at least 2-3 hours to visit the entire museum! We recommend taking the "New Sensation XR Bus WOW RIDE" which goes directly from JR Fukui Station to the Dinosaur Museum. The entire journey only takes 55 minutes and the process is very lively and interesting. It will definitely be an unforgettable experience! 🕰️Business hours: 09:00 - 17:00 (Closed on Wednesday) 📍Address: 51-11 Terao, Muraoka Town, Katsuyama City, Fukui Prefecture #Fukui #FukuiTravel #FukuiPrefecturalDinosaurMuseum #Dinosaur #Japan #JapaneseAttractions Dinosaur Museum Dinosaur Museum

#springitinerary Echizen Ono Castle is one of those places that feels like a hidden treasure. Tucked away in the mountains of Fukui Prefecture, this castle isn’t as well-known as others, but it’s definitely worth the visit. The castle tower sits on top of a hill, giving you some seriously stunning views of the surrounding countryside, especially during the fall when the leaves change color. The castle itself is pretty cool, it’s small but packed with history and has that classic, traditional Japanese castle vibe. You can climb to the top for an even better view, and the peaceful atmosphere makes it a great spot for a relaxed afternoon. The area around the castle is also full of charm, with old streets and a few temples to explore. If you’re looking for a more off-the-beaten-path castle experience, Echizen Ono is the perfect mix of history, nature, and serenity.

Surprisingly little known? Take a food tour of Fukui, a treasure trove of food! Recommended foods in Fukui include crab, seafood in general, Echizen soba, rice, and local sake. They are all delicious and relatively inexpensive, making it the perfect prefecture for food tours! The opening of the Shinkansen has made the area more lively than before, and the number of tourists has increased. There's no doubt that Echizen soba is delicious, but the thickness of the noodles and the broth vary from shop to shop, so it's fun to try out a few! A wonderful place that's definitely worth a visit! 📍Location:

#2024TravelReview #FukuiTravel #EchizenCrab #Tsuruga The most memorable travel itinerary in 2024 was my first trip to the dinosaur capital 🦖 Fukui Prefecture to taste Echizen crab 🦀. When the ban on Echizen crabs was lifted in November, we drove 🚙150 kilometers from Nagoya to the crab restaurant Kani Kanitei on the Echizen coast in Fukui Prefecture to taste the freshest and most vigorous yellow-label Echizen crabs. Since it is the peak season for eating crabs, the restaurant must be booked in advance. The crab legs are sashimi, the crab body is grilled, and the crab cakes are made into korayaki, which are very delicious😋. After that, we went to Fukui City and stayed at the tallest #FukuiCourtyardbyMarriott in the city. The large dinosaur model in the Dinosaur Square in front of Fukui Station is lifelike and roars from time to time. Dinosaur elements can be found everywhere in the city🦕, from street installations to souvenirs. Afterwards, we headed to Tsuruga's #日本海鱼市场 to try the Echizen crab 🦀 and the local specialty charcoal-grilled mackerel 🐟. We visited the #基比神宫 and #敦贺红仓. The next day, we drove back to Nagoya to complete our three-day, two-night Fukui Echizen crab dinosaur tour.
